Dinner fit for a Princess - or three!

Marina slept late again this morning. We had decided to go to church with Christina, Leisa and their parents today. Marina got to go with Christina to her Sunday School class. She seemed happy to do so.

We had lunch with Uncle Bob and Aunt Mary Ann. Marina has taken to calling them “Grandad” and “Gram” like Christina and Leisa do. It seems pretty natural. We packed up our bags and got ready for the drive to Orlando with my cousin Linda. The three girls were in the back. Leisa took a nap on the way while Marina and Christina played with the DSI. They all did really well on the trip.

We checked into the hotel and got ready for a very special dinner. The girls put on their princess dresses. Marina dressed as Cinderella, Christina as Rapunzel and Leisa as Sleeping Beauty. I even put make up on them all. One we were all ready, we headed to the Grand Floridian hotel. We had reservations at 1900 Park Fair with Cinderella and her friends.

Dinner was a buffet, which made it a little hectic. But the girls were all ready to meet the characters as they came to our table. We met Cinderella, Prince Charming, Lady Tremaine, Anastasia and Drizella. Some of the characters weren't so nice, but what do you expect from Cinderella's stepmother and stepsisters?

After dinner, we had planned to take the girls swimming, but the weather did not cooperate. So we all ended up back at the hotel. The girls didn't seem to mind. They just like being together.
